I need serious help

OpenStudy (zootedyoungin):

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

C = pi*D

OpenStudy (zootedyoungin):

Pi* diameter?

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Yep, and Area = pi*r^2 radius is half the diameter

OpenStudy (zootedyoungin):

Ok but how does C= pi* D?

OpenStudy (zootedyoungin):

oh Circumference

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Because pi is the ratio of circumference to diameter

OpenStudy (zootedyoungin):

I thought you meant Part C

OpenStudy (zootedyoungin):

OpenStudy (zootedyoungin):

of course

OpenStudy (zootedyoungin):

can you work me through part A?

OpenStudy (zootedyoungin):

Do I just solve for the circumference of each circle and record what my answer is?

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

You have the C and D for each circle

OpenStudy (zootedyoungin):

?

OpenStudy (zootedyoungin):

Circle A has a diameter of 7 inches, a circumference of 21.98 inches, and an area of 38.465 square inches. The diameter of circle B is 6 inches, the circumference is 18.84 inches, and the area is 28.26 square inches.

OpenStudy (zootedyoungin):

I dont see what im solving for

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

lol read part A then :P

OpenStudy (zootedyoungin):

they gave the Circumference and the Diameters and the area

OpenStudy (zootedyoungin):

the value of pi is 3.1415 tho

OpenStudy (zootedyoungin):

3.14

OpenStudy (zootedyoungin):

how do you solve for the value of pi

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Use the formula I gave. Plug in the relevant C and D for the circle

OpenStudy (zootedyoungin):

21.98/3.14 = D(7in)

OpenStudy (zootedyoungin):

C= pi* D?

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Yes, use that formula, plug in the C and D, solve for pi

OpenStudy (zootedyoungin):

21.98= 3.14*7

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

No, SOLVE for pi. Pretend you don't know what it is.

OpenStudy (zootedyoungin):

lol pretend i dont know what pi is?
